"Great game. Going to keep you busy for hours"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This game is really good. You will definitely get your moneys worth. Because you will keep dying and play for hours. But you have really engaging gameplay, great graphics and so far pretty good story.

"A Brilliantly Maddening Adventure"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Somehow this game succeeds in being at once both magisterial and absolutely soul-crushingly difficult. If you enjoyed the challenge of the Dark Souls series then pack a lunch and brace yourself, because Sekiro will f**k your hopes and dreams to the point where you will begin to identify with beat-down titular shinobi on a truly spiritual level. The combat is primarily focused upon timing and the breaking of your opponent's guard. The learning curve is near-vertical from the outset. Although the environments can at times feel somewhat unpolished, given the fact that it was built for a modern platform, you will tend not to notice this as every ounce of your concentration will be focused upon not being gutted by an obese alcoholic samurai for the eight time. The combat mechanics are difficult, but also brilliant – it's a nice change to find a combat-driven game that is not reliant upon hacking-and-slashing and brawling. The narrative and character development are excellent, and are strong enough to help you endure the constant beatings that you will be receiving from even the lowliest mini-bosses. If you don't mind persevering with the frustration of multiple deaths at every step of your journey through medieval Japan, then you'll find Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice or to be more accurate: Shadows Die Repeatedly at Every Possible Opportunity) an incredibly rewarding experience. I highly recommend the game, but just be prepared for the inevitable frustration.

Description

Your death won’t come easily. Introducing Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, a fantastical, dark and twisted new gameplay experience from developer FromSoftware, creators of Bloodborne and the Dark Souls series.

Directed by Hidetaka Miyazaki, and published by Activision, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is a third-person, action adventure game with RPG elements. The single-player game puts players in the protagonist role of a hardhearted warrior whose mission is to rescue his master, a young lord who is the descendant of an ancient bloodline, and exact revenge on his arch nemesis. Set in the re-imagined world of late 1500s Sengoku Japan; a brutal, bloody period of constant life and-death conflict, in Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice you are the “one-armed wolf,” a disgraced and disfigured warrior rescued from the brink of death.

In the game, players come face-to-face with larger than life foes; unleash an arsenal of deadly prosthetic tools and powerful ninja abilities to blend stealth, vertical traversal, and visceral head-to-head combat in a bloody confrontation.

Take revenge. Restore your honour. Kill Ingeniously.

Features:

  • Kill Ingeniously – FromSoftware delivers their best in class combat in this fast-paced, action adventure game featuring all new mechanics.
  • Exploration is key – Players will experience the thrill of exploration and discovery in Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice like never before. Through exploration, players can uncover new items, meet new characters, and encounter hidden enemies.
  • Armed – Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice gameplay is centred around sword combat, enhanced by a variety of prosthetic arm attachments that supplement or change the way a player fights. Achieving strategic mastery of “Sekiro” or the “one-armed wolf’s” techniques and abilities, from prosthetic tools, swordplay to stealth and the grappling hook is no easy feat. To overcome difficulties and bring each situation under control, gamers must discover, integrate and use a variety of new tools when heading into combat.
  • One-armed wolf – Play as a highly talented shinobi in the service of a young lord raised in isolation. After suffering defeat at the hands of a shadowy Ashina samurai seeking the unique heritage of your master, the two of you are separated. Deep in the mountains, in a dilapidated temple, you reawaken to your fate. You must take back your master and exact revenge on your enemy at all costs.
  • Hard to the core – Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is a hard-core game worthy of the name FromSoftware. Miyazaki designed Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice this way! Fans of FromSoftware will find the gameplay challenging, yet fun and rewarding. The quality of combat, level of challenge, and creative enemies and bosses are something that can only be found in a FromSoftware title.
  • Reimagined world – This reimagining of Japanese aesthetic blends a withered, yet vivid, world of the late 1500s Sengoku Japan as the age of warring states nears its end. Witness a world brought to its knees by constant bloodshed; a ravaged world on the brink of destruction. Explore these environments, rich with FromSoftware’s in­tricate design and steeped with secrets to discover.
  • Larger than life enemies – Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice features fantastical fearsome enemies and bosses. Players will battle with larger-than-life enemies that will test their mettle in a variety of situations. From hidden enemies to discover to 3D combat, the quality of creative enemies and bosses are something that can only be found in a FromSoftware title.
